    There's a fella with the last name Garland here in the States that has been successful at growing them for over 20 years. Emerald Lagasse use to buy everything he grew. Anyway, he sells the "sick trees", and now offers a non disclosure workshop which would be good for you but not us. Lol

    Great video. I too would love to know if it worked. I tried the perlite mixed with ground up dried “spores” I bought on Amazon from Ukraine lol. Unfortunately after a couple of weeks the perlite and acorn slurry turned rancid and extremely acidic so it must’ve rotted or caught an airborne organism. I kept the acorns which had not sprouted but tossed the rotten slurry. I understand it takes 4-5 years to see any results of this experiment.

    I have contemplated this for sometime. if this doesn't work, try either starting the spores, or clonal tissue in oak root extract agar. Meanwhile try to start an oak cutting in a sterile tissue culture media. Once the roots have formed transfer the cutting to the extract agar, or vice versa.

      @@yunusemregokmen6330 the purpose of the oak root extract would be to provide it with whatever essential element that is missing in traditional mycological agar mixtures so that it could begin the growing process..
      essential my idea would be to get some oak roots. put them in a blender and grind them up pretty finely and mix with some plain agar. Pressure cook the mixture, pour into petrie dishes, and inoculate the dishes with truffle slurry once the mixture is cool and solid in the dishes. Hopefully the truffel spores will begin to form a mycelial mat in the dish.
      Next would be to root an oak tree cutting in a plant tissue culture media, providing it doesn't have any anti fungals, I suppose it would work with soil rooted cuttings as well. Once the cutting has established roots you'd make mycelial transfers from the dish to the rooting media close to the roots. Hopefully it would form the symbiotic link and grow with the tree.

    I would say there is plenty of information out there but it is in the form of research papers. These tend to be really hard to read for the average person. In order to obtain a pure culture, there is a lot of equipment and techniques that have to be used. It is typical to find bacteria and yeasts within the gleba so creating an plate that inhibits those and promotes truffle mycelium is critical. I am interested on how this turns out though and will keep an eye on your channel

  • @ДмитрийСимакович-ы8л

    Hi! Looks like good idea, but I have some questions:
    1. Why do you pasterise soil? It seems be better atmospheric sterilisation for 3+ hours to kill concurent spores...
    2. Did you apply some enzymes for better truffle spores propagation? There is an opinion that truffle spores have too tight capsule and digestive enzymes make it softer for easier propagation. In wild nature pigs and hogs are animals that help truffles to find new trees but only after passing their digestive system.
